"You've never seen anything like it anywhere on Long Island!" The sign provides pleasure for the Earl of Kielt every time we go to South Jamesport. No parking permit required. He loves that. Me I like the grassy rigging area. And the wind!
The lot is one block north of the beach FYI.
"We don't sail South Jamesport on Northeast!" someone said. But nobody wanted to deal with the traffic to Napeague, so we gave it a North Fork go.
And we were rewarded.
Scott, Artie (who forgot his masts) the Wolf, George Pav, David (who forgot his harness) and your editor arrived to mid-five meter conditions, with some small but organized rolling swell in parts. Sweet! It was a straight reach across the bay to East Landing, where Scott met another crew of windsurfers. Artie and I had to leave early for family obligations, but for those who stayed late into the afternoon, 4.7 and better was the call.
Summertime, and the living is easy.

Frank is a man who cares about his beaches. Access rights, cleaning them up, you name it. This year's annual Gilgo Park Beach Cleanup takes place Saturday September 21, starting at 9AM. Bring your smiles! As seen on the Long Island Windsurfers group on FB August 11 post.
